actually submitted by lekendrick on September 16, 2010, 4:55am I was fully prepared to hate this movie, but it opens on a sitting walker in at least couple of sequences the bill board marks of gore two thousand can be seen so something like six years from pre-production to post? Gerald & Brian Grazer of arrested the television so key in making effort! It is a Jim Carrey picture, but couldn't be more wonderfully matched Tea Leoni from Dharma & Greg the under-rated American Broadcast Company family comedy. Alec Baldwin delivers an excellent performance not far off of his 30 rock role this with a southern twang hitting close to home, but funny all the same in the lovely affect of I've been away from, my country home to long, and yes it is troubling subject matter taking direct aim at realm corporate not specific, but in general! But, mostly admiration in the business as well art film production as for max impact? Two thousand four with more ominous sound scape & perhaps an academy award in addition democratic victory, but I like the windmill pulled! Because it is a rolling derby on film many sequences make one wince, but there are lessons to be learned!

Realistic , NO... but- submitted by Kikumatsu97 on July 7, 2015, 1:57pm This movie anchors itself on one thing. ..a couples fight against the corruption of big business. It's such a funny adventure. There's a scene where in a desperate attempt to regain his status, Dick steals the neighbor's lawn...yes, the lawn. It seems like such a close to home concept too when it comes to the status hungry American tally standard, to have this much of everything, a nice car, more meat than we need. ..this movie is a hard look at American culture and how the need to achieve can cause corruption in individuals as well as big businesses. Excellent.
